Nyomi's First Birthday

We celebrated Nyomi's first birthday with her three friends - Harper, Lola, and Savannah - who all turn one days apart from each other. It was so fun! We also did a little dedication for them all. Here we all are as we say our hopes for our kids. Matt said that we hope that Nyomi will grow up to be confident in who she is as a person.

Here she is eating her first cake.

Taking a little break out of the sun.

Here are the four girls eating their birthday cake.

Here is a picture of her birthday cake before she ate it.

Our birthday girl!

Nyomi @ 11 months on Easter Morning 09

Nyomi @ 10 months!!!

Wow!!! Time goes way to fast!!! Nyomi is just about walking. She still needs something to help her stand up but then she just takes off. Taking 10 to 15 steps before falling. Crazy girl! She loves table food . In fact I have to sneak in spoonfuls of baby food to get her to eat it at all. Her favorites are cheese, egg, pancakes, and any fruit. But she will pretty much eat anything. She still has no teeth but you can see them in her gums. Just hope they don't all come at once!!!! She took her first swing ride today and giggled the whole time. Funny story.... we were at church with her and Doug Fields was speaking. Every time the audience would laugh at something he said she would bust out laughing too!! It was sooooo cute and funny!
